CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT
Step One. Failed.
Juma thought of his last dream that day. It was crazy but he felt like he was transported to the past!"I saw a slight shock on your face that time, I thought I was still dreaming but it seems like you will be helping me more than I thought," Juma seemed to have thought of something and said."I also thought I would use this chance to ask you the questions, and now that you're touching on the cause story, I have no choice than to proceed,"Stephany said in all honesty."Speaking of the school, I happen to know where it is. I-"When she was almost revealing that she also studied there, she intentionally stopped.Juma raised both of his brows in a 'looking forward to what you're saying' look. When Stella did not plan to continue, he seemed to lose control of his mouth asking,"You would love to take me there and be my tour guide?" He asked, totally misinterpreting her pause.When Juma started to speak, Stephany's heart hung onRelated chapters

With Author's greetingsStephany was startled by his sudden emergence. She didn’t know he would be joining her that quickly.His voice gentle with the cold breeze brushing through her hair.He wrapped his left arm around her neck. Her body trembled slightly at the cold touch from his cold arm.His right hand raffled her hair and he leaned his chin on her head."Your body is hot," He said.Stephany lifted her right hand and touched his arm that was wrapped around her neck."And yours is ice cold. How long have you been standing out here?"Stephany countered with a question of her own."Not long. I guess I am just cold,""That's your answer?""Mmh!"Stephany did not probe further. But, she furrowed her brows deeper as she seemed to be thinking deeply.Silence swept between them."What's-" the both of them started all at once. Their abrupt meet in speech brought a chuckle from both of them."You first" They blurted together once again.A sigh left Stephany's lips."Shall we play?" Juma t

The Tabloids.As always, Stephany woke up in time despite retiring to bed late the other night. After that sleep, she seemed energetic and had some laps on the treadmill down in the gym room.After a few laps of exercise, she decided to take care of other tasks before rushing for a shower. Since it was morning and chef Ali wasn't home that day, she went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.Stephany thought of her life. She was never someone who had the love for the kitchen while growing up. But, her mother and aunt would urge her to prepare breakfast.She was a quick learner too and that increased her laziness towards the kitchen duties. Especially when she felt her relationship with her mother was separated by a wider gap every single day that passed.She doesn't even remember if it was her or her mother that discouraged her from spending some time in the kitchen. All her siblings, who are all male, knew how to cook from as early as five years.The first tim

What they think.The day did not start as both had expected. They ended up quarreling even if they didn't want to."So, you clearly knew that I was bringing the company a problem with my scandal and you didn't feel like telling me?Does it mean that the meeting you scheduled this morning is to deal with the problem. And you wanted me to stay at home.The lack of communication means that you told them to block any information coming to me? This is ridiculous!"Stephany said. Juma was silenced but thankfully they were alone in the car. The entire journey proceeded in silence.When they reached the office underground parking, Stephany was the first to climb out of the car."See you back home!" That was her final word to Juma and he knew clearly what she meant. They were hardly going to see each other that day in the company and she was going to make sure of that.As she walked on, Juma's phone rang. Seeing the screen, what caught his attention was the ti

A Call From The Headquarters.After leaving Juma in the parking lot, Stephany went to the company through the normal employee lift as always.Everyone in the company was eyeing and gawking at her and she was sure that some of them had read or gotten a whiff of the rumor that had been plagued online.Like always, she did not bother about it as she rushed to her office. This time she wanted to dig into this information and learn who in the company is helping someone out there against her.When the clothes that she wore during the company’s launch were out, she didn’t have the reason to suspect anyone from the company. But, when the photo of her from the hotel the other day was released, editing out Juma like he didn’t exist at the time the photo was taken, she started to have some hunch on what was going on.Knowing Juma’s attitude, she didn’t divulge anything to him, giving the person a chance to get her reaction. The person had tried making her get out of her silence but she/he found

Mr. Chairman.When everyone heard what Juma said, they looked panicked except for Boniface and another man, dressed in a blue suit that was sitting next to the HR. Boniface had a smug look of gloat on his face. It seemed like he didn’t care the slightest bit of the hidden threat masked under Juma’s words.Also, he seemed like he had his own plan and that the plan had been successful and all he was waiting for was only his victory announcement.When Juma had turned his back to the department heads, the earlier mysteriously calm man was typing on his tablet again. Stephany watched him from the corner of her eyes and then turned only to be met by Juma’s gaze.Since he was seated and she was still standing by his side, Stephany was a little taken aback. Especially with the look he was giving her, like she was the only one in the room, with his right brow arched.Stephany hurriedly looked away only leading to the unseen smile on his serious face. Jeffa, who was going

His Decisions.‘Today, this place is so disordered. Is it because Cain asked them to stop the news? He is the boss, these old barbarians think they are still in the 50s where a CEO was at the age of 45 and over?’ Stephany scoffed inwardly.She couldn’t believe that these men today were being disorderly. She was never liking the fact that only men were the heads of the departments and could be the only one at the meetings. Yet, she knew her place as an employee and an insignificant person in the management of the company.Also, her gut told her that Juma had an effect on the arrangements.‘What is it that I don’t know? Does this company belong to your mother?’ Stephany turned her gaze towards Juma.He was seated silently and no one could know what was in his mind at the moment. Even though Stephany could tell he was surprised by Desmond’s call earlier and that did not escape her eyes.She could see some rage. ‘Why is he furious?’“So, you are saying that this employee doesn’t obey the

Thanks Man.If Boniface wasn’t satisfied by the way Juma managed the company, he was welcomed to draft his resignation letter because Juma was an important personnel in the entire Company of Kolex.co.It was clear up to that point, that if Juma decided to keep the employee, which was Stella, even the chairman himself could not refute.Stephany understood this and she started to ask herself, of what could have happened if she kept on going against Cain, or if she successfully made him fire her. She felt her heart's birth fear.Fear for the ruthlessness of Juma Cain if she could have gone too far.“All our employees are team players. They don't sit down and focus on one thing. They rack their brains. If the baseless rumors could already see our aim in partnering with companies like Frankey’s Studio. Then they are not entirely wrong!”This statement made Boniface’s face twitch. If he was a fool, he wouldn’t have known if the statement was meant for him.Even

Can’t Take Your Guilty Face.After Astridge and Stella left the conference room, the both of them chatted like friends who had known each other as they went down to the mall.The lifts were placed in different corners and hallways. So at some floor they had to walk on the hallway to get to the lifts. People at the company were so shocked seeing Stella, the one they had taken to be a lesbian talk with a man.Stella was a busy lady in the company, this was because she had never been seen having chats with Jeffa who had been her assistant that long.When they reached the mall, they headed for the cafeteria.“So, if you were here for a week now, why did you not join the company then?” Stephany asked as they walked in.“Because the company doesn’t announce the time for someone’s arrival nor is the person given a specific time. Only a deadline,” Astridge replied truthfully.“This company’s management is mysteriously weird,”“You can say that again,” A
